Diamond in the Rough by Jen Turano

5.0

Diamond in the Rough is another laugh-out-loud funny romance from Jen Turano. I always have a huge smile on my face when I'm reading one of her books. There's just something so special and uplifting about them. This is one of my favorites.

Poppy's entrance into New York high society doesn't get off to the best start. It's full of mishaps, slips of the tongue, social miscues, and embarrassing snafus, but that doesn't stop Poppy from having an upbeat attitude about it all. I loved that about her. She's so cheery and optimistic despite it all. Wouldn't it be nice to be more like her in awkward situations? She's exactly who she is. No airs. No apologies. Just her awesome, mishap-prone self.

And then there's Reginald who I have to admit I fell for the moment he first appeared on page. There's just something about a broody Englishman that I can't seem to resist. His attempts to teach Poppy proper etiquette were quite amusing. There was never a dull moment when those to were together.

I absolutely loved this story and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a sweet romance and a good laugh. I can't wait for the next book.
